Alright, let's solve this problem step by step. We have 88881 and 30885, and we're subtracting the second number from the first.

Step 1: We'll start by subtracting the digit 5 and the borrow 0 from 1 in column 1 and get -4.
We add -4 to 10 and get 6 as the first digit of the result.

Step 2: We'll start by subtracting the digit 8 and the borrow 1 from 8 in column 2 and get -1.
We add -1 to 10 and get 9 as the next digit of the result.

Step 3: We'll start by subtracting the digit 8 and the borrow 1 from 8 in column 3 and get -1.
We add -1 to 10 and get 9 as the next digit of the result.

Step 4: We'll start by subtracting the digit 0 and the borrow 1 from 8 in column 4 and get 7.
7 is the next digit of our result.

Step 5: We'll start by subtracting the digit 3 and the borrow 0 from 8 in column 5 and get 5.
5 is the next digit of our result.

So, 88881 - 30885 = 57996.
